Ed. Regaster-As scarcely see any news
from our little town I will try and give yov
a few items. Corn crops look fine and If we
have no drouth during this month and next,
1t is believed that an abundance of corn will
be raised in this vicinity. Wheat harvest is
done and haying is now in order and the
weather of the past week or two has been
very good for harvesting and haying.
We had quite nice time here the fourth.
A good many attended the picnic, and all
seemed to enjoy themselves splendidly.
We have two good church houses here, the
Methodist and Christian. There was preach
ing here to-day by the Rev. Wilkinson. We
have preaching almost every Sunday.
There was quite gloom spread over our
little town last Monday morning from tele-
gram received telling of the sad accident of
the death of John Rowell. He in company
with C.. Collins and W. E. Chiffon, left home
Sunday evening, went to Des Arc and board
ed the night train for Mill Spring to attend
to some business there, at which place they
arrived just before daylight. Mr.. Rowell
having some old acquaintance living at
Moss Ferry, little station about mile and
half from there, started while it was cool
and walked up the railroad to see them and
take breakfast. On his way back the can
non ball train came up. He stepped about
four feet from the track when it was about
thirty yards away from him, but 1t is sup
posed that a beam from the engine struck
him, killing him instantly. Mr.. Rowell was
50 years old. He will be greatly missed as
I>n I'll Of Ha
leaves wife and three children to mourn
his loss, who have the sympathy of the en-
tire community in this sad bereavement.
His remains were brought back home and
the funeral services were performed by Rev.
Barney Brewington Tuesday evening, at two
O'Clock, at the Christian church, when bis
remains were consigned to their final resting
place.
Dearest husband thou hast left me,
Here thy loss deeply feel,
But tits God that has bereft me,
He can all my sorrows heal.
Dearest husband, thou hast left me,
But it will not be for long,
On that crystal shore I'll greet thee
With that bright celestial throng.
In Adam all die, even so in Christ shall ali
be made alive.
Miss Lille Weast, of Belgrade, who has
been visiting her sister, Mrs. Collins, of this
place, for several months, went to Des Arc
last Sunday where she will spend several
weeks with her sister, Mrs. Fitz, and then
return home. She won many friends while
here who were sorry to see her leave.
TAYLOR Collins, of Patterson, was in town
to-day shaking hands with many friends, as
he used to reside in this place.
Mr.. Henry Reese returned home o.day
after few days visit to see his sister, who
lives on Cedar Creek.
As this is my first attempt to write for
your paper, will stop for fear this may find
its way to the waste basket. c. S.V.

A Janitor Who was Not Esthetic,

1t is always contended BY the art

ever established among them from the

Rubens' STRAW Hat.

The history of R1bens' famous por-
trait of the "Straw Hat" has just been
told. 1t appears that the artist was
dead in love with the lady who wore
the hat, Mile. de Lunden, and he de-
sired above all things to paint her por-
trait. AS she persistently refused 70
permit him to paint it, he was Obliged
to employ stratagem While she TOOK
her daily walk in the garden he secret
ly observed and made the picture, In
receiving it as present she forga,ye
the fiattering indiscretion OF her cele'
brated admirer. She died young, to
Ruhens' great sorrow, for he had hoped
to marry her. After her death ne beg
ged her mother to give him back the
portrait, promising in return to pam
for her the best example OF his skill
He copied the portrait, but made iu'
hat instead of one of straw. The Lun

A paragraph to the injury Of the
American Board has been going the
round OF the press, rejecting on the
honesty with which the Morning Star
steamer, for use in the South Sea
Islands, built by the contributions OF
the children, was constructed. We
have made careful inquiries, and have
no doubt that the ship was admir-
ably built. 1t received at any rate, the
highest of "a l, for fourteen years,
from the highest commercial nautical
agency in London. The captain. who
watched its building and furnishing
said better boat could not be built,
and that is true. But il is stated on
the best authority, that it was not prop
erly cared for on the long voyage to the
Sandwich Islands Under the hot
tropic sun the deck was not wet fol
weeks, and it was badly injured. The
tanks we're reported to have leaked SC
that it seemed necessary to put in al
Magellan for water, when the only
trouble was that no more water could
be pumped out because no vent|latlni
hole was made. Important parts were
allowed to get badly rusted, and new
sails slowed away were not aired, ano
we're rotten when the boat reached
Honolulu. Somebody was to blame
